Parametric Interrupt Timed Automata

Abstract

Parametric reasoning is particularly relevant for timed models, but very often leads to undecidability of reachability problems. We propose a parametrised version of Interrupt Timed Automata (an expressive model incomparable to Timed Automata), where polynomials of parameters can occur in guards and updates. We prove that different reachability problems, including robust reachability, are decidable for this model, and we give complexity upper bounds for a fixed or variable number of clocks and parameters.
